So for starters, what do you have loaded? What variation of linux, unbuntu? debian? (they are very similar, ubuntu is based on debian). AND what version?
To find out:
cat /etc/os-release <enter> (note this may be different on other Linux variations, e.g. redhat = cat /etc/redhat-release, at&t unix (or other deviations) cat /etc/release)
uname -a <enter> this will give you details about your kernel version
OS variation and kernel versions are great starting points.
Just a quick network query on google, reveals a lot. I queried, "linux RTL8192EU"
A lot of ubuntu will ALSO apply to debian releases, and vice versa.
familiarities you need to know:
'git' <- there are several examples in the results, as well as examples for the 16.04 LTS
'apt' <- learn about this, you will need it, especially using ubuntu, debian,
also 'dpkg' <- believe this was the original package manager for debian.
(yum for redhat derivatives)
you will need to know the above package managers just to get provisioned to put in the driver, e.g. installing compilers, dev tools, etc.
This is not just linux, it is same with MicroSloth, when you get into stuff at this level you are no longer, a user...
Remember, if another man/woman did it, you can too. Be tenacious, it will build your skills and familiarity with what you are trying to accomplish.
I do not have the particular USB dongle to validate (yours), so I cannot provide a driver, you need to do that since you have one.
evilbunny made note of dkms..., that is a better option, but I did not find a dkms build there may be one out there (I could not find one at first for mine). but also, going through the exercise of a build (like my first post), will help you understand the basic process of if making a driver work, there IS versions of that driver out there in particular for ubuntu and debian builds.
Advise of your progress in understand some of the above, I will make an attempt to coach you through the process. (I check back here periodically, so bear with me).

Learn it, live it, look there. At this level man sections 2,3,5 are your best resources for using the system, 2 = system calls, 3 = stdio calls, 5 = configuration files for utilities. There are other sections, but again at this level those will probably be of most benefit - to see if man is installed, type:(02-26-2018, 07:19 AM)elik745i Wrote: can you help me to install RTL8192EU drivers?
